Nightmare

You want to bathe in the river, right? After being scolded by your parents because the building is late, right?" said the man who was 10 years older than him while looking at Zia's eyes, which were filled with tears after leaving his house earlier.

"It's okay Sis, it's Zya's fault… Sis move aside, Zya wants to take a shower and go to school." said Zia and entered the river.

Unbeknownst to Zia, the man kept watching Zia while Zia was bathing and scrubbing her body and Zia had a habit of bathing in the river fully clothed, usually Zia bathed with her other cousins ​​but because she was late she had to bathe in the river alone.

"Your body is very good Zia, when you grow up your body and heart will be mine at any cost," the man muttered behind his hiding place.

When Zia came home wearing wet clothes, of course her beautiful curves were more visible in the man's eyes, but Zia didn't realize that someone was watching her, the 8 year old girl was busy walking home to her house, unfortunately half of the way someone dragged her into the bushes .

Near the banana tree, of course, Zia felt very panicked and scared, that's where Zia cried because she was harassed and almost raped.

"No… Please… please, don't attack."… Zia said crying and restless in her sleep.

"Sister, wake up Sister... you had a bad dream huh?" said Sasya trying to wake Zia up by shaking Zia's body.

"Hisz..hisz..his..ummm.." shouted then Zia sobbed even her body was sweating cold.

"Sister... Zya's brother, Calm down, Istifar brother..." said Sasya worried about her friend who had shouted.

"Astaghfirullah..hallazimm..mm" ​​said Zia, trying to calm herself and catch her breath after waking up from her nightmare.

"Sister, drink some water first, sis... calm down, sis, don't cry anymore... did you have a bad dream, did you make your neck cry like that?" Sasya asked after giving Zia a glass of water.

"It's okay Younger sister, I just forgot to read the prayer earlier, so bad thoughts are carried away by dreams." Zia said after drinking the water and feeling better than before.

"Owalah, okay sis, next time pray just go to sleep". Sasya said.

Fortunately, Zia found a good and caring friend like Sasya, so that she could feel safe, not tense.

"Sister, why don't you cry like you did sis, it makes me scared and worried at the same time, try to go back to sleep first, so you'll be more relaxed and not nervous." said Sasya wisely.

"Yes thank you." Zia said with a smile and then went to the bathroom for ablution, then went back to sleep after that more calmly.

In the morning Zia wakes up at 5:00 and wakes Zia to replace the dawn prayer because the place is quite narrow. In her prayer Zia prays to Allah the Lord of all creatures, "why did I have a bad dream like last night, is it part of Zia's bad past?, O Allah forgive me, forgive me if my sins are too many, lighten my burden, Amen." Because today is Sunday, Zia and Sasya will take a leisurely walk around the park near the boarding house.

"Why is it so quiet in the park?" said Sasya while walking in place.

"Yes, it's still early, how come it feels like someone is watching us on the Younger sister?" said Zia feeling uncomfortable.

"What are you doing this early in the morning, maybe it's just my feelings because there's no one here but us," said Sasya who said that Zya was carried away by the fear of her nightmare last night.

"Hmmm, yes, but... Zia," said Zia, who was surprised to see a face that looked like someone in her nightmare, then closed her eyes because her head felt dizzy.

"Who is she the younger sister?" ask Zia

"Oh, isn't that the one who sells somay?" asked Sasya.

Sasya did not see the person Zia was referring to because that person disappeared after Zia closed her eyes and was seen holding her head in pain.

"Sister..., Sister Zia is it okay??, shall we sit down first!?" said Sasya who was worried seeing Zia's face which was a bit pale and broke out in cold sweat.

"It's okay, Younger sister. It's just that my head suddenly hurt, now it's not as painful as before, let's just go home." Zia said then looked for the person she had seen but was no longer there, maybe Zia was right, she saw it wrong.

"Sister is strong, right?, could it be that you are tired because we walked far away?!", said Sasya worriedly.

"It's okay, younger suster maybe earlier, the effect of a bad dream, oh yeah, yesterday forgot to open the package, we'll open it together, okay?" Zia said.

"Yes, Sister now, let's just buy side dishes for breakfast and lunch and dinner." Sasya said

Then they walked to the stall they subscribed to, and ordered vegetable kates, salted fish and tempeh orek. Then they went back to the boarding house.

"Younger sister.... why am I afraid to open this package." Zia said.

"Just Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, Sister." said Sasya.

After saying 'bismillah' Zia opened the box, it contained 5 red apples, a black robe, and an envelope containing 10 million.

Zia felt strange from where a stranger knew what she wanted. "Zia likes red apples and wants to buy a black robe and 10 million in cash, what is Zia doing with that much money?..." Many questions arose in Zya's head after opening the package box.

"Sister got a message from your parents, yes. They are very kind and caring, even if you know that you are eyeing the black robe yesterday, we didn't buy it because you are afraid that you won't have enough money, even this robe is better and branded." Sasya's chirping.

"But this is not from my parents, deck, I've asked them, and yesterday...?, yesterday I didn't call my brother or my parents had financial problems. I don't know how come I suddenly sent someone here ." said Zia feeling something odd.

"Yes sis, what is it Sister?" asked Sasya who saw Zia's unopened glass bottle.

"This?...there's a letter in it." said Zia surprised.

Content of letter:

Hey honey, you look happy with your new friend, I bought you fruit and a robe, and money so you can buy whatever you want....sorry...,

Black roses turn red

"Wow, Sis. Zia got a love letter from this lover?" Sasya said teasing Zia.

"No deck, I don't even know who sent this package, maybe the same person who sent the mysterious gift 1 year ago... but why did he appear again.....," said a confused Zia.

"Is that the secret fan you mean?" Sasya asked curiously.

"Could be, let's accompany me to donate some of this money to people who need it more," said Zia.

"Suster..., Sasya also needs hehehheh..." said Sasya laughing....

"Yes, I will love you later after accompanying me." said Zia with a smile.

"Eh... eh Sister. No I'm just joking, besides, I still have enough money." Sasya said uncomfortably to Zia.
